G D C G Me and Billy standing there, with a silver half a crown. G D C G Hands full of fishing gear, and the tackle on our backs. G D C G We just stood there getting wet, with our backs against the fence. [Bridge 1] Am D Am D Oh, the water, oh, the water. Am D Em D Oh, the water; let it run all over me. [Chorus 1] G C G And it stoned me to my soul, G D Em G Stoned me just like Jelly Roll; and it stoned me. G C G And it stoned me to my soul, G D Em G Stoned me just like Jelly Roll; and it stoned me. [Verse 2] G D C G And the rain let up and the sun came out; we were getting dry. G D C G Almost glad a pickup truck, nearly passed us by. G D C G So we jumped right in, and the driver grinned and he dropped us up the road. G D C G We looked at the swim and we jumped right in; not to mention fishing poles. [Bridge 2] Am D Am D Oh, the water, oh, the water. Am D Em D Oh, the water; let it run all over me. [Chorus 2] G C G And it stoned me to my soul, G D Em G Stoned me just like Jelly Roll; and it stoned me. G C G And it stoned me to my soul, G D Em G Stoned me just like Jelly Roll; and it stoned me. [Verse 3] G D C G On the way back home, we sang a song, but our throats were getting dry. G D C G Then we saw the man, from a-cross the road, with the sunshine in his eyes. G D C G Well, he lived all alone in his own little home, with a great big gallon jar. G D C G There were bottles too; one for me and you and he said; "hey, there you are". [Bridge 3] Am D Am D Oh, the water, oh, the water. Am D Em D Oh, the water; let it run all over me. [Chorus 3] G C G And it stoned me to my soul, G D Em G Stoned me just like Jelly Roll; and it stoned me. G C G And it stoned me to my soul, G D Em G Stoned me just like Jelly Roll; and it stoned me.
